You could flash the rooted ota that was released on Phandroid.com. you need to be s-off though.

I don't have the link but its on phandroid.com in the Htc One Sv section. You need to be s-off though you can use the Moonshine method.

Yes but not with Windows with Linux (Kubuntu which is a flavor of Ubuntu)
I couldn't get adb to recognize my phone so since I was dualbooting Linux already I used that. If you need help let me know.

Unfortunately not. I need a custom rooted ROM with gb 2.3.3 as a base so I can use the ruu to put it back to stock.

His phone doesn't have s-off. That's the issue. Need it back to stock so I can use revolutionary to root properly.

Maybe factory restore will do.... That might bring it back to the old version.... I'm assuming he was just getting official OTAs

He had just got the phone 2 weeks ago. Used htcdev to unlock. Now can't get s-off or relock.

So he's S-ON, but unlocked via HTC?
What HBOOT is he on?

Just reflash the latest RUU for his handset - you don't need to go back at all
I have been running the ruu through windows and it always gets an error. Is there a different way to flash it?
Sent from my PC36100 using Tapatalk
Connect the phone in fastboot mode and then run it - works fine for me that way
...and it worked that way with your bootloader unlocked?

Finally got this fixed. Thanks for all of the help.

I don't know if this is completely true, but you may need to relock your bootloader and go back to the stock recovery in order to get the ota update. Obviously, if someone makes a rom from it you can just use that.

Or just relock your bootloader and use the RUU file.

Can someone post a flashable zip? I don't want to run the RUU because I don't want to update my hboot.
Alternatively, if someone could post a TWRP nandroid backup file that I can restore, that would work too
I'm currently running the European 2.21 release with the 1.06s radio.
TY!
Sense 4.1 is wicked fast and the option to remove the menu on screen button is awesome more screen real estate for me . My recent apps button now functions as menu button sweet.

Yeah, I thought that was a flashable zip. But I can't flash it using a custom recovery.
FYI people this update also allows more apps to work and download from the play store

Anyone perform the update with encrypted storage? Just want to make sure it doesn't mess anything up before updating. From what I'm seeing, though, this is a nice upgrade.

Is there anyway to downgrade hboot on a T-Mobile s4 version one s

I heard that you can down grade the boot to 1.06 from 1.14 so is there any way to do that?

Linux is absolutely required. Load it on a flash drive and boot into it. Then follow the instructions.

Just to clarify, this downgrade will fix the issues like loss of 4g and wifi on most ROMs other than trickdroid 7 correct? That's the only reason in doing this downgrade

I've never run into this problem since I don't use Sense based roms. So I honestly don't fully understand that issue. So my guess is that downgrading won't directly fix your problem but it will allow you to move to the next step in the fix.
I would bet that you need to flash something that your current hboot won't allow you or you need to run an older RUU. To do either of those you would need to downgrade your hboot.

[Q] New to HTC One S

hello everybody! ive had a iphone for about 2 months now and couldnt take it anymore so i just bought a htc one s! i want to root it but i want to make sure i know everything that need to be done. i see the videos and the step by step processes but i have a few questions. every tutorial i see looks to be done on ics. i bought the phone and it was already on android 4.1.1. do the tutorials still apply? also when i plug my phone into my laptop it doesnt have the charge only/ sd mount (or whatever its says) like it does on ics version....it just says usb connected and wen i tap that it goes into hotspot and tethering options. it is a htc one s S4 so can someone please help me? thanks
You can still unlock boot loader the same way. To get s-off go through the development section till you find moonshine s-off
Sent from my One S using xda app-developers app
Ok now what exactly does s off do and do I have to do it in order to root?
Sent from my HTC VLE_U using xda app-developers app
No you don'tHAVE to do it. All you have to do is unlock boot loader. S-off just allows you to flash whenever you want. If your s-on you have to flash the boot.IMG from the rom.zip through adb

Oh ok. So how do I go by rooting this thing when I'm on android 4.1.1

You can use hasoon2000's toolkit to unlock the boot loader then install a recovery

You don't necessarily have to s-off except for certain things. If you want to flash custom ROMs, can be accomplished even without S-Off

There are these ROMs TrickDroid and zenROM. Sense 5 based. Head over to the Development section you'll find them there. Read the requirements for flashing the ROMs. If it says S-Off is a must only then should you go for it. Otherwise no need.

It's not that difficult. Also try non-sense ROMs like CM 10.1, ILLUSION 2.0 by $droyd$ (very good and stable ROM), PACman ROM.

I have stock rom. But its rooted.Supercid is 11111111 and S-OFF.I unrooted it using the unroot option in the superuser.But i need the stock recovery so that i can get the ota update.
All you need to do is run the appropriate RUU for your phone. Look in the resource thread that is a sticky in the Android Development section, you'll find links there.

While it's easier just to RUU, it is also possible to extract the recovery image from an OTA zip file.

He wants the stock recovery so he can update via the ota. I figured less work to just run the ruu.

I agree. I just like throwing in alternative solutions for learning purposes. Ruuing is certainly the easiest
